President/CEO

Ryan received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Penn State University in 2004. He went on serve as the Indiana Director for a collegiate missions organization. In 2016 he and his wife, Jana, moved to Marietta, OH to plant Local Church. His leadership led the church to become one of the largest in the mid-Ohio valley, but also showed him the pitfalls of the church planting journey. After living through the challenges of leading a growing church and getting stuck in too small a facility, he and Gregg Parris were inspired to cofound the 99 Network.

Chairman of the Board

Gregg pastored Union Chapel Ministries in Muncie, IN for 43 years and saw the church grow to thousands in attendance under his leadership. He spent the last 10 years of his time at Union Chapel raising millions of dollars so that churches could be launched around the country. His leadership led to the planting of 30 churches. He is a founding member of the 99 Network along with our CEO, Ryan Miller.

Creative Director

Katelyn grew up as a church planter’s kid—never imagining she’d one day get to use her creative gifts to help other church planters build God’s Kingdom. God placed in her a passion for creativity and connection, which now fuels her work as the Creative Director for the 99 Network. She also partners with ministries and businesses across the country to help them communicate their mission with clarity and heart. Katelyn and her husband, Brandon, live in Pennsylvania with their two boys, Cooper and Parker.

Director of Spiritual Formation

Gary Kendall, married to Belinda for 44 years, leads a citywide ministry, Love KC, and works for Gloo as a Cities Lead. Gary and Belinda planted Indian Creek Community Church in Olathe, KS (Kansas City) and led the church to grow from 7 families to 2,500+ and a multi-site ministry. Gary co-founded CMA, The Church Multiplication Association with Robin Wood. Gary travels often with Gloo serving city networks and national partners.

Network Magnifier

As a wife and mom of four, Joy Farley leads with both faith and purpose. She serves as a Network Magnifier with the 99 Network, drawing from 18 years as an entrepreneur, coach, speaker, and mentor. Her passion for evangelism, leadership development, and growth fuels her calling to equip and encourage pastors and leaders.

Executive Administrator

Dee transitioned into this role after serving for seven years on staff at Local Church as Kids Pastor and Church Administrator. Along with her recent job at Local Church, Dee brings over 14 years of experience as a preschool teacher and 8 years as an office administrator, not to mention a lifelong commitment to serving in the local church. She began working with children at 14 years old and has continued to pour into kids and families throughout her life. When Dee isn't working, you can find her spending time with her family.  She married her high school sweetheart, and together they have two daughters and six grandchildren.
